A FLOATING CONCERT PRESENTING A FLOATING PROJECT
Note: RSVP on Partiful does not confirm entry. Seating is only secured through ticket purchase via link.
Join us aboard a historic sailing vessel for a sunset performance unlike any other in the New York Harbor.
On JUNE 28, 7:30 to 9:30 PM, we present NEW AMSTERDAM SOUNDS. Cruise the harbor at golden hour while you enjoy sweeping skyline views and striking visuals projected onto the sails, all set to live music performed by Dutch-New York artist Vivienne Aerts.
This floating concert features songs from Aerts’s new album Current, a project recorded aboard Aerts’s own 1951 Dutch mahogany sailboat, De Vouw, while traveling through the waterways of the Netherlands. Blending vocals, keys, electronics, and field recordings of creaking wood, rippling water, passing locks, wind, and birds, creating a sound world that is intimate, cinematic, and deeply alive. Moving between atmospheric song, improvisational texture, and subtle electronics, Vivienne’s music resonates with listeners of artists like Norah Jones and James Blake, while remaining unique on its own.
For this special floating performance, these songs return to the water. As the sun sets over Manhattan, audiences will experience an immersive live performance featuring songs from her new album, atmospheric electronics, and projected visuals on the sails.
Limited capacity.
